The following series contains updates to ixgb and igb. The ixgb patch
is a trivial fix. The remaining patches are for igb to do the following:

- cleanup/consolidate Tx descriptors
- trivial fix to remove _adv/_ADV since igb uses only advanced
descriptors
- performance enhancements to help with general and routing

This series of igb patches is the first of three to update/cleanup the igb
driver by Alex. So there are additional patches/changes coming to complete
this work.

The following are changes since commit 765cf9976e937f1cfe9159bf4534967c8bf8eb6d:
tcp: md5: remove one indirection level in tcp_md5sig_pool
and are available in the git repository at:

function
